CURRENT MISSION Connect with travelers and hosts around the world ABOUT ME I have worn a lot of hats in my life... I have been a Mormon, a father, a Boy Scout leader, and now a free thinking, adventurous atheist. I enjoy figuring out the public transportation system of new towns and finding Ma and Pa cafes. Hearing a cover band sitting on a Skoolie in the Arizona desert is my perfect night. I enjoy swapping stories with people that have walked different paths. Preparing and sharing a meal with new friends brings me joy. I am a retired military officer and Southwest Airlines pilot. I am friendly and tolerant. PHILOSOPHY I have a glass half-full outlook on life. I enjoy challenging myself and learning from others. Knock on my door. Can't wait to meet you...

One Amazing Thing I've Done
I have over 20 years of military and civilian flying experience. I have flown the 737, A-10, T-37, T-6 and KingAirs. I have owned several sailboats: Westsail 32, SeaPearl 21, Catalina 22, Hobie 16 and a Sunfish. I have traveled all over the world but there is still so much to see and do.... One favorite memory is learning to fire the 30 MM cannon of the A-10, I was so excited I forgot to release the trigger during my safe escape maneuver and sprayed rounds all over the Arizona desert. My bad...
